Realistic episode of NCIS revolves around catching E-3 with two grams of spice

Filed · 1544

NORFOLK, VA — Critics are hailing the latest episode of NCIS after showing a gritty and realistic take on a four month undercover operation to bust a dangerous drug ring onboard the USS Harry S. Truman.

The episode begins with Special Agent Timothy McGee pretending to be a Fireman Apprentice in Truman’s engineering department. After four months of being ignored and treated like shit by everyone onboard, McGee gains the trust of Engineman Fireman David Wallace. Wallace shows McGee the location of a store where he purchases Spice, a legal substance he smokes off the ship.

McGee then alerts his boss, Special Agent Leroy Gibbs. "Gibbs, I've uncovered a huge danger to the entire United States Naval service," McGee says in one of the episode's climactic scenes.
